Martian Ranch & Vineyard
Absolute Magnitude Gamay Noir
Really fun to share this with @Ellen Clifford and hear about the winemaker, who sounds like a total boss. Carbonic in style (notes of Dr. Pepper I believe?) and lots of fun.

Aug 30th, 2018Love love love that Gamay Noir is being planted in Santa Barbara County - this is a really enjoyable bottling and they are organic and B.D. As well so earthy cherry cola notes as well as subtle wood spice

Apr 22nd, 2015Earthy medicinal notes, goji berry, dried jujube, mushroom. Medium body with soft tannins. Reminds me of Anjou Cabernet Franc.

Just one of those nights where you're tasting your second California Gamay of the evening, nbd. (New entry to the field.)
